Guilders know no bounds in their creativity

· by ·

Over 150 entries were included in the High Prairie Quilt Guild’s 27th annual show and sale at the High Prairie Curling Rink Sept. 28-29. Each year it seems the guild’s members expand their creativity. Not limited to traditional patterns, members explore all boundaries to include games, sports and animals. Most of the photos on this page feature close-up shots of the detail included in each quilt. Truly an outstanding display of craftsmanship.
